Last summer (isn’t it nice to remember summer, as we enter the middle of winter) when all the Supreme Court – Hobby Lobby Crap was going on I got so fed up with That No Birth Control Providing Employer that I went through all my crafting supplies, and decorating stuff and any thing else I could […]

I had originally planned to do 2 wreaths in this segment, but the post would be tooooo long. So I will split it up into Fake Green Wreaths and Fancy (non green) Wreaths. I say Fake Green Wreaths because this is not Floral Decor Class and Real green wreaths do not bend and stay.where you […]
